Family Classes
One of the objectives of Canada's immigration program is to facilitate the reunion in Canada of Canadian citizens and permanent residents with their close relatives and family members. The Family Classes include the overseas Family Class and the inland Spouse or Common-law Partner in Canada Class.
A member of either the overseas Family Class or the inland Spouse or Common-law Partner in Canada Class must be sponsored by a sponsor who must meet certain requirements.
A foreign national is not considered a a member of the Family Class or the Spouse or Common-law Partner in Canada Class if he/she falls into the category of excluded relationships.
While the selection criteria for the Family Classes are established by the Federal government, Quebec may establish its own criteria for the selection of the Assisted Relative Class.
